– 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
– 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

**Instructions:**
Let’s walk through the steps to create this mouthwatering dessert:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350º F and lightly grease two 9×5-inch loaf pans with butter or non-stick spray.
2. Cream the Mixture: In a large bowl or mixer, combine unsalted butter, cream cheese, and sugar until smooth and creamy.
3. Incorporate Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract one at a time. This adds a rich flavor to your bread.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
5. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just incorporated. This forms the base of your bread.
6. Layer the Batter: Pour ¼ of the batter into each greased baking dish.
7. Add Caramel Topping: Spoon ¼ cup of caramel topping on top of the batter in each pan and swirl it while keeping it away from the edges.
8. Complete the Layers: Gently add the remaining batter on top of the caramel layers, creating a delightful caramel swirl throughout.
9. Bake to Perfection: Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, ensuring your bread is moist and perfectly cooked.
10. Cool and Enjoy: Let the pans cool before serving. Once cooled, slice and savor your homemade Caramel Cream Cheese Bread!
This delightful treat is sure to satisfy your dessert cravings.
